Standardized Testing Dates

Most colleges require that a student take the SAT or the ACT.  These scores must be sent to the college by the student via www.collegeboard.com or www.act.org.

Many colleges will take the highest score from either test.  If a student has taken the SAT numerous times, most colleges will take the highest critical reasoning and highest math from the various test dates. Other colleges may take only the highest combined score from a single

test date.

The highest composite score is taken from the ACT. 

Some resources to help you prepare for the SAT:

• www.powersource.com
• Endeavor Research, a very reputable organization that we have used in the past, schedules a weekend day course.  It may be on our campus or another school.  Please refer to College Guidance for any available dates.  
• www.collegeboard.com
• www.princetonreview.com
• www.kaplan.com
